Car Accidents in Michigan
Michigan’s extensive highway system plays a vital role in daily transportation, but it also contributes to a high number of car accidents. More than 280,000 traffic crashes were recorded in the state in recent years, many involving injuries and significant property damage. Accidents on busy roads often result in more serious outcomes due to high speeds and congestion.
After a crash, many people find themselves dealing with the complicated process of filing insurance claims. Here are a few common obstacles victims may face:
- Delayed Claim Approvals: Insurance companies often take their time investigating accidents, which can leave victims without access to repair funds or medical coverage during a critical period.
- Low Settlement Offers: It’s not uncommon for insurers to offer compensation that doesn’t reflect the full scope of injury-related expenses. Victims may be pressured to accept a quick payout that falls short of their needs.
- Disputes Over Fault: Determining liability can become contentious, especially in multi-vehicle collisions. If blame is contested, it can stall the entire claims process and even reduce the amount a victim is eligible to recover.
- Coverage Gaps: Some drivers only carry minimum coverage, which may not be enough to pay for another person’s injuries or losses. In such cases, uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage becomes critical.
- Medical Billing Conflicts: Healthcare providers may send bills directly to accident victims rather than waiting for an insurance decision, putting added pressure on the injured party during recovery.
- Documentation Demands: Insurers often request extensive paperwork, including police reports, medical records, and witness statements. Missing or incomplete documents can lead to claim denials or unnecessary delays.
